BRE PAGE 


Under the title “Selected Sumerian and Babylonian Texts’”’ 
appear in the present volume ninety-five letters, Sumerian and 
Semitic codes of laws, a medical text, hymns, prayers and incan- 
tations. To these texts have been added a few literary school 
texts. 

This medley of so widely different texts needs an expla- 
nation. It was occasioned by the fact that the epistolary 
material offered here completed the publication of all the 
letters owned by the University Museum, with the exception 
of a small number of very fragmentary letters of the Cassite 
period, the condition of which would have made their publi- 
cation worthless. I decided therefore to publish with these 
letters all such literary texts which had not yet been assigned 
to scholars. All the incantation texts in the possession of the 
Museum have been copied by me and are incorporated in this 
volume. But also the number of these texts proved to be too 
small and I have added on this account all such material that 
would insure the interest of the Assyriologist. The volume thus 
presents a considerable variety of texts, a variety, generally 
- not favored with text editions, that was caused by the shortage 
of epistolary and incantatory texts. 

I take this opportunity to express my thanks to Professor 
Morris Jastrow, Jr., for many helpful suggestions and criticisms. 
To Professor Jastrow I owe particularly the correct reading 
and the meaning of the heretofore enigmatic reading of 
E-nu-ru, E-nu-sub or E-nu-Sub. The reasons for his reading 

(21) . 


22 PREFACE 


E-nu-Sub = “House of exorcism” Professor Jastrow will submit in 
the forthcoming number of the Journal of the American Oriental 
Society. My thanks are also due to the Director of the Uni- 
versity Museum, Dr. George B. Gordon, for many courtesies 


during the preparation of this work.

AN INCANTATION TEXT 


This text, together with another text published in this volume 
(No. 112), contains but implorations to the evil spirit to depart. 


Judging from the size of the tablet, it seems that only a few lines 


of the top of the obverse are lost, so that we may conjecture 
that this tablet, like tablet No. 112, began immediately with the 
formula: 77 X ge-pad ni¥ X utammika.

A duplicate fragment of this text is found in Langdon’s 
Grammatical Texts, PBS. XII, No. 1, plates 32 to 35. The 
text, however, where the duplicate comes to assist 1n its restora- 
tion, is still too fragmentary in the first column of the reverse to 
allow a running translation. It is probable that also text No. 27 
in the work of Langdon represents but an excerpt of the present

Incantation of the house of exorcism. 

The evil demon has smitten man 
with sickness. 

It causes the limbs to toss in pain. 

It rushes into the street. 

The evil devil 

Is let loose in the plain. 

The robber is not turned back. 

The hag-demon 

The ghoul 

Have rushed upon the man. 

With heart-disease, madness, 

Sickness (and) headache 

They cover the man. 

Scorching the wanderer 

Like the day. 

With bitterness 

They fill him. 

This man from his soul 

Is torn and tosses like the billows. 

Marduk saw him. 

Unto his father Ea 

Into the house he entered. 

He spoke: 

O my father, an evil demon has 
smitten man with sickness. 

He causes the limbs to toss in pain. 

He rushes in the street. 

Twice 

Let him say it. 

What he has done he does not know, 

Nor how he shall be relieved. 

Ea unto his son 

Marduk

O Marduk, 

What dost thou not know? 

What else can I add unto thee? 

That which I know 

Thou knowest also! 

Go, my son 

Marduk! 

Water from the asammu-vessel 

Pour out. 

Tamarisk and mashtakal-plant 

Place on his heart. 

This man atone! 

Censer and torch 

Cause thou to go forth. 

The curse which is in the body of 
man 

Like water 

May run away! 

The copper of strength 

Of the hero Anu 

Whose terrifying roar 

Seizes away whatsoever is evil, take! 

Where its roar is given out 

Bring it! 

Verily it shall be thy supporter! 

May the copper of strength

With its awful roar 

Help thee!

And does not set free. 

It in the night

Like a wild-ox it lifts up to Sumer

To foreign lands it smiteth on the

Its great feasts fill the people with

O Enlil, holy seer, splendor thou 
increasest! 

Mightily thou sweepest along 
through the splendid watery Deep 
of the ocean. 

In the low mountain of the bril- 
liant shrine(?) thou abatest the 
wind. 

From Ekur, the shining temple, the 
lofty dwelling-place thou turnest 
away the.stirred up winds. 

The fear of its splendor reaches the 
heavens. 

Its shadow encompasseth the moun- 
tains. 

Its form stands inmidst of the 
heavens. 

The priests of the sanctuaries 

Prepare holy Ishtar-cakes. 


Prayer and imploration they make. 

O Enlil, behold thou graciously! 

Through a faithful word raise thou 
up the land! 

On the inaccessible mountain, on his 
brillant mountain, 

Tle distant mountain, submission 
is rencered. 

Like a just shepherd appoint the 
affairs of the universe. 

With produce make the surface of 
the land heavy! 

Offerings (then) they will bring to

In the lofty temple they will pre- 
pare Ishtar-cakes.

PRAYER OF AN INCANTATION PRIEST 


This very interesting text contains the prayer of an incan- 
tation priest to the goddess Girazag in order to secure her divine 
assistance in re-establishing the good relations between a man 
and a maiden. An enemy, probably an evil spirit 1s intended 
thereby, has caused the separation of the maiden from the man. 
The maiden has gone away. The man was brought to the river 
to establish his innocence in the cause of this separation. His 
innocence was proven, or, to cite the passage in the text, “He 
is in the breath of life, he is established as a faithful man.”

‘For the restorations of lines 3 to 5 compare KMS. I: 12, 13. 

* The wedge after the numeral 10 has been taken as the beginning of 
the sign kam, but it is also possible that it represents the lower left wedge of 
the numeral 4. In case we read 14, it is of interest to note what Bu. 88-5-12, 11 
(CT. 5, 6) has to say of an eclipse that happens during the 12, or the 13, 
or the 14 day of the month Kislimu. Lines 30 ff. read: ina arbi Kislimu

Since the goddess A is here called the mother of the Deep it is most probable 
that /d, the river goddess, is to be identified with 4 as one and the same mytho- 
logical personage. Read Jd also in this passage? In Tablet V, CT. XVI, 
pl. 13 the goddess /d is called the mother of Ea, which speaks also strongly 
for the identification of both goddesses.

431 Sic! This passage, in which the serpent-god is placed into the same 
position with the Lilitum, is very strange, when we consider that in the Caillou 
Michaux I:21=I R. 70 and KB. IV 78 ff., the serpent-god is regarded of such 
importance that his name is mentioned in an oath side by side with the iddanz 
rabiti. Cf. also the kud. of Nebukadrezar I, Col. II1:49 (IV R. 56). In this 
passage he is even called ilu Supi, i.e., “‘the excellent god.” In CT. XXIV, 
8 K. 4340 79-7-8, 294, Rev. Col. III, line 11 ff. he is named together with the 
protecting-deities dingir Alad-Sag-ga, dingir Lama-Sag-ga, dingir Utug-Sag-ga, 
etc. See also FRANK, Studien zur babylonischen Religion, pp. 250 ff. for a 
comprehensive presentation of this god. 

1482 Probably nothing missing.

PoEBEL, Die sumerischen Personennamen zur Zeit der Dynastie von Larsam 
und der ersten Dynastie von Babylon (Breslauer Habilitationsschrift 1910) p. 33. 

139 The Semitic value of tappu for the Sumerian an is new. Or is the 
Semitic rendering simply a very free one for dingir in the sense of “protecting 
genius’? Compare with this, for instance, Lutz, Early Babylonian Letters 
from Larsa, No. 15 1.9 and note on p. 23. Here i/u in the sense of tappu seems 
to fit very well. 

140 41-gab=qepu, see Br. 5352; ni-gab literally “the one who opens” sczl. 
the door. It is probable that through this original meaning it came to be 
translated in Semitic into gepi, 1. e., ““one who is entrusted with something” 
not only in the specific meaning of a keeper of the door, but in a general sense, 
one who Is entrusted with any kind of an office.

176 | angdon reads here dingir Lugal-dig umun-nun and translates “Oh 
divine lord of the dead, protector.’ wumun-nun does, however, not mean 
protector at all! An uwmun-nun may just as well be a tyrant, an oppressor. 
A “divine lord of the dead”’ 1s also entirely out of place here, as well as for the 
context where it occurs in other passages. Compare f. i. Tablet 5 of the 
maqlu-series Col. 2, lines 23 and 24; to read here, “The fury of Lugal-dig, the 
protector (!), which you have established for me, the fury of Lugal-dig, the 
protector(!) may be placed upon yourself,’ would be a contradictio in adjecto. 
The reading of Langdon is therefore untenable.

wrong. 

3 KI kam-ri=asar kamri, literally, the place of a heap, the place of 
heaping up, whence probably also place of storage. 

254 Se-e-ta, something woven, a sling, a net. As it is here named as a 
utensil which is used for traveling, and kept when not in use in the house 
where the implements of the journey were deposited, it may have been the 
hammock. 

235 The tablet reads du, which is a mistake of the scribe for ra. 

286 ‘The tablet plainly reads uwS-tu, which also not incorrect for ultu, can 
hardly have been in use during the Cassite period, where the tendency pre- 
vailed to change the sibilants into labials. If, however, this is not to be taken 
as a-scribal error, then it stands as a rare example of the original form of ultu. 

*87 Note the writing of #-Se-bi-al-ku, which must be intentional as it occurs 
twice on the tablet.

*%3 The reader will observe that this letter excludes the possibility of 
identifying beli-ia “my lord’ with the king himself. This throws considerable 
doubt on the proposition of Rapau (BE. XVII, Introduction) that these 


114 UNIVERSITY MUSEUM—BABYLONIAN SECTION 


Cassite letters, addressed ‘“‘ana belia,” are invariably destined for the king. 
Not less than forty letters are contained in this volume which are addressed 
“ana belia,’ but it is absolutely impossible to surmise from their contents 
that they are addressed to the king himself, although in some instances this 
may be possible. 

24 From the material published in previous volumes of the University 
Museum we learn that the king mentioned in this letter is to be identified 
with Shagarakti-Shuriash. The addressee Amél-Marduk was a GU.EN.NA 
officer, that is probably the royal chief sheriff of that king. This identification 
of the addressee with the GU.EN.NA officer mentioned in Vols. XIV, XV 
and XVII, affords the means of interpreting this short letter. Amél-Marduk 
receives the royal summons to bring in his official capacity as chief sheriff 
A pil-shadit-rubia, a person under indictment, to the capital. 

25 kulda, from ka’adu; imperative kuSdu>kuldu > kulda, the sibilant as 
usual in the Cassite period passing into a labial. The “aq” in kulda denotes 
the energetic form; cf. Creation II, 136 Sukna for Suknu. 

26 The tablet reads ‘ag, which is a mistake of the scribe for ba. 

27 The sign which looks more like bu on the tablet is probably intended 
for 11. 

298 1-lu for u-la. 

29 Sic! mitum, not mitit.

306 | DENNEFELD, Babylonisch-Assyrische Geburts-Omina, p. 28, e, 11 
translates e-dir-ti by Not, Bedraengniss; the passage reads “Summa amélu 
Sinata-su i8-tin qibit e-dir-ti..1f a man urinates, command of affliction.” 

307 On zu-u-tu “sweat,” Hebrew myt, see H. Hoitma, Koerperteile, p. 8.

therein may dry up”; II R. 61, a50, nzqilpu Sa Zu-u-tu, “falling of the sweat.” 

308 The restorations of this letter have been made by means of three other 
letters which were published by Rapau in Vol. XVII, Part I, of the BE. 
series, letters 31, 32 and 33. Letter 31 is particularly interesting as there 
appear, besides the name of the physician, who reported on the condition of 
certain ladies connected probably with the temple at Nippur, to his lord, all 
the names mentioned in this letter. By the help of that letter both names of 
the lady Lata and of the daughter of the Ablamite have been restored here. 


H. F. LUTZ—SELECTED SUMERIAN AND BABYLONIAN TEXTS 115 


That these were mentioned in this letter is probably indicated by the number 
eight in line 31. 

#09 On 2 (15atu omitted) see RapAu, BE. XVII, part I, p. 36, note 7. 

310 The uncertainty of the name in BE. XVII, 31:27, which is there read 
Ush(? or BA?)-ba (? or ka)-...., is removed here. The name is to be read 
Ba-ba-ti. 

311 Restoration uncertain. 

312 kamma &a for kima Sa (?), cf. THUREAU-DANGIN, Sargon go. 

313 q-na l1-1t “into the presence of,’ see JENSEN, KB. VI, 403. Litu is 
probably identical with the word Jitu, létu, cheek. If this word really is Jitu, 
cheek, and not Jitu, strength, then the meaning of Jitu as a part of the body 
points at least to some part of the face, but certainly not to the “‘back,”’ since 
the phrase means “‘into the presence of.’ For parts of the body used as 
prepositions see HoLmA, Koerperteile, p. 1X. 

3144 Read 15, which is carelessly written on tablet. 

315 On gi-ri-im compare CT. VI 23a:21 and K. 48:11, written here 77-ir- 
mi-(ma). | 

816 175-$a-ar-an-ni for l1-(15)-Si-1r-an-n1; “‘t’’ under the influence of the 
following ‘“‘a’” changed to “a.” 

317 ‘This grammatical monstrosity doubtless stands for the form 1-fa-ba-tum 
(=tu-ma). 

318 The total excludes the old grain in both instances. 

319 The tablet reads NJG-KUR-D4A; is this a mistake for NJG-kK UD-DA? 

820 Or Sibé. Written AB-BA. 

821 qj-ta, probably a verb form. The text does not seem to be in order. 

82 For Sipirti cf. also naSpartu>naSpastu, BE. |X, 73:5. 

23 Restoration doubtful. 

34 See HAV: p..424. 

825 The transliteration and translation of this line is doubtful. It might 
also be transliterated by: KAB-DUK lu-i Sa Samnim ba-? The reading 
of it in ba-it is a mere conjecture. Perhaps read te for tu=ha-tu, transparent, 
clear.
